Keeping a journal somehow makes us want to live a life worth writing about. I pride myself on striving to live each day to its fullest, sucking the marrow from every moment. I believe we are human beings, not human doings, so I am not defined by a job, title or project. My word of the year for 2011 was "JOY," and I tried to seek joy in every day and every adventure that crossed my path. I had a pretty amazing year, so this year my word is "HERE," after all, all we really have is NOW.

Last post on Winter mantle
Here is the promised closeup picture of my Winter mantle (so you can see the cute little birdies!) One tip I will pass along that I discovered this Christmas with my decorating...don't spend the extra cash on garland for your mantle, use multiple sprays of greenery instead! I was shopping for new garland and the prices were high (even half off) so I decided to experiment and see if I could just buy 8 picks instead...and it actually worked better because I had way more controll over how it 'flowed.'
Happy decorating...I am off to plan my fun with my grandson, Brady, who is due to arrive any minute.
